Surveying Engineering

Surveying is a global profession with excellent opportunities in
industries that underpin land markets, urban and rural development and
engineering construction.

Madda Walabu
University started its Surveying Engineering Degree Program in 2007 E.C. The
program's objective was to train future surveyors to be qualified for the
practical application of sciences and technologies involved in acquiring,
storing, managing, processing, integrating and visualizing geographic and
spatially referenced information as well as integrating the data for different
kinds of analyses.

Surveying Engineering
Department has local and expatriate Instructors and laboratory assistants who
are very much dedicated in attaining the University's vision of becoming an
institution well known for its outstanding learner experience and distinctive
regional contributions. The department would also like to recognize the high
quality impact of its staff on teaching, training, applied research and
innovation to their student's success as future surveyors.

The goal we aim to
achieve as a department is highly possible with the unswerving dedication of
our students and staff alongside the remarkable support of the University.
Together we can bring the change we are all dreaming of in the field of
surveying through development of practice oriented education and research.
Producing surveying engineers who will contribute to the social and economic
development is highly beneficial in substantially reducing poverty in our
beloved country.

In
addition to the general objective of the University, the B.Sc. program under
interest in particular is expected to bring about change in the field of
Surveying through the development of practice oriented education, research and
producing surveying Engineers who will contribute to the country’s social and
economic development and substantially reduce poverty.

Specifically,
the Surveying Engineering degree program at hand aspires to:

ØPromote
a strong sense of ethics and professionalism in the fields of surveying and
mapping.

ØProduce
surveyors who will contribute to the country’s social and economic development
and substantially reduce poverty through conducting researches in the field of
surveying and mapping.

ØThrough
the development of practice oriented education and research, to produce
well-qualified professionals in the fields of surveying and mapping.

ØProduce
an engineer who plan, manage, monitor and evaluate the operation in any
cadastral and mapping surveys.

ØProduce
an engineer who applies basic mathematical, scientific, legal and measurement
principles that form the theoretical framework of professional surveying
practice.

ØProduce
an engineer who select and properly use appropriate techniques and tools to
collect, analyze and interpret data to obtain optimum surveying solutions for
different situations in the country.

ØProduce
an engineer who assess a survey situation, determine the opportunities and
risks for clients and others in that situation, postulate an optimum solution
for the situation, implement the proposed solution, and assess the impact of
the solution after implementation.

ØProduce
an engineer who solves problems as part of a team containing members with
majors in other disciplines.

ØProduce
an engineer who recognizes the potential of conflicts between the best
interests of clients, society, and professional service providers, as well as
ethical precepts and legal obligations to avoid or resolve these potential
conflicts.
